PC Gaming & Wowhead-Themed Merchandise Surveys and Game Time Giveaway!

Every few months Wowhead runs surveys regarding market research here and this time we're looking to get some insight about our users PC Gaming Hardware. Additionally, we have a second survey dedicated to getting your thoughts on Wowhead-themed merchandise! In the past we've had brief T-Shirt campaigns but nothing continuous. We've long had a desire here to open up a shop with our own custom made products, from T-Shirts and Hoodies, to Pins and Plushies but it's a laborious endeavor and we want to know what you think we should, or shouldn't, pursue.\r\rAs per usual, we want to provide additional incentive to complete these surveys. We know you love us and don't need incentive, but, why not? Let's do it anyway. There are two surveys you can complete to earn yourself an entry. Participation is entirely optional, but appreciated. You can complete both, one or none. All information obtained will be handled anonymously. The Wowhead Merchandise Survey has some optional questions, if it's not relevant to you, or your previous responses, you're welcome to skip any without a *.\r\rThose who complete the survey(s) and provide their email address therein will be automatically entered to win one of the below prizes:\r\r\r1x - Six Months of WoW Game Time\r4x - Three Months of WoW Game Time\r15x - One Month of WoW Game Time\r\r\rWe will be randomly selecting these winners, from valid survey submissions, for a total of roughly $500 in prizes. If you complete one survey, you earn yourself one entry; if you complete both surveys, you earn two. You may only win one prize regardless of the number of entries. Winners' may opt for Battle.net Balance instead of Game Time but will need to provide their BattleTag in order to do so. This giveaway is open to all regions where gifting game time or Battle.net currency is permitted. \r\rEntries will be accepted between now and Sunday, June 10 @ 11:59 PM PDT.\r\rNote: this giveaway has ended. The winners are:\r\rSix Months of WoW Game Time\rvanillalicks\r\rThree Months of WoW Game Time\r\reldaroth69\rdrumayer\rkaggan\rChalice\r\r\rOne Month of WoW Game Time\r\rbershka00\rBushwookie\rwmbarnes\rsg137iu\rInstation\rfourks\rTynael\rTyromancers\rJesXD\rzakayron\rTheniz\rAngelsnature\rRonanRaven\rQIra\rOrbrim\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\rWinners will have up to 14 days to reply to the email received to claim their prize or it will be forfeited.

Ohhhh. I understand why it wasn't, then. I would have been open to more questions about it, but I'm not much of a 'branding' type guy.

The other survey was kind of fun though. As someone who does buy PC stuff, but rarely, it feels like my voice definitely matters. :P

I just thought of another bit of merchandise I would love to see. I know user ideas may not always be feasible, but is there a place I can submit such suggestions outside the survey?

Should we actually open a store and it proves successful then we're definitely open to the idea of additional product types, posters are a nice idea that we hadn't previously discussed, so thank you for the suggestion!

You can post it here or submit to . Whichever you're most comfortable with.

Noxy isn't associated with Wowhead anymore, but you never know, we'll likely contract various artists for things.

Re: Pepe (I assume?) -- we'll probably have something at some point, you never know, but you don't have to buy it :P

Not necessarily, but maybe? I like reusable\/movable stickers like this, but the price goes up from the standard single use type. We'll see!

I felt the PC survey heavily assumed people ONLY purchased pre-built rigs with only one question referencing building your own.

Thank you for the feedback though!

Thanks for the survey and possible prizes. I'm not sure physical merchandise is really going to benefit you, since by the nature of the beast this is a digital product. I know even if I stuck things on my car and wore t-shirts, etc. nobody I'm ever around would have any idea what it meant. So, I'm not sure what your target market\/demographic is? I actually wonder if some form of digital merchandising like special signatures for 3rd party forums, Discord\/Twitch badges, etc. would be a better idea? I think it's a very wise idea to do these surveys and gather as much data as possible. Just my two cents! 8)

Trust me, I want to wrap my car in a Wowhead-themed wrap to advertise the site but I understand that's not likely to provide any sort of return on investment. :D\r\rAs long as enough people purchase products from us for their own personal use, because they want to show their support physically and\/or monetarily, to allow for the store to be self-sustaining, we're good with that. We entirely recognize that this isn't a venture likely to turn into its own brand necessarily, but you never know what could happen.\r\rDigital items are an interesting idea, but I'm not sure of the logistics of that really. Would anyone even purchase such a thing and if so, for how much, and how would one prevent it from being distributed freely? Like I said, interesting, just not sure how feasible it is.

Speaking of digital products, I produce and sell music online and it's not easy for the reasons you indicated. It's a long-term game, if you know what I mean. Wowhead has great brand recognition already though, so you never know.

one word: action figures\r\rok, technically two words, but you get the point. things like statues, busts, maquettes, action figures, dolls, miniatures (pre-painted or not), model kits, etc. could be great things to put on display, especially in a gaming room.\r\ralso, puzzles, bookmarks, or trading cards. and the good thing is you can use the same art\/photos that you use for posters or stickers so you don't have to commission more items or hire more artists.
